The old city houses some monuments that are worth the detour: the San Vicente gothic church, the Santa María del Coro baroque church and the old convent, today museum of San Telmo presenting interesting archaeological and ethnological collections.

Follow the living streets and reach the square of the Constitución, used originally as an arena. On the "Gros" beach, you can admire the modern architecture of the "Kursaal" (concert hall) , created by the architect Rafael Moneo . Don’t miss one of the main events of San Sebastian: the "Tamborrada".

You will discover the brass bands parading in the streets on January 19th and during 24 hours, lively atmosphere guaranteed

RENFE Madrid-San Sebastian | Kook Kee w. | 2015/06/13
"Information on train schedules and update should include English. Renfe staff in San Sebastian spoke good English and went extra mile to help with information. Madrid Chamartin can do with the same.
Booking online is very useful for planning our trip.
All in all, a very good experience.
Many thanks

Wonderful staff! | . | 2015/03/14
"I got the wrong train from San Sebastian, and I ended up in rural Spain... but with the help of the staff on several different trains, I was able to make it to Madrid, and only two hours later than originally scheduled! Even though no one spoke much English, they were exceedingly helpful :)
"

Only way to see Spain! | John r. | 2014/07/11
"We had a great trip from the very beginning to the end! Comfortable, on time and dining cart was great too!
My only recommendation for tourists is to take a map of Spain with you so you know where you are when passing through little stations and the surrounding countryside
Staff were fabulous and helpful too
